e0“The anaerobic fungus Neocallimastix sp. strain R1 was grown for up to 5 days on a medium containing autoclaved Italian ryegrass hay as the carbon source”
e3“the extent of removal of arabinose exceeded that of the other three sugars, and xylose was the least digestible”

Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Dry-matter losses of Italian ryegrass hay cell walls were accounted for by removal of four neutral sugars.
- Observation First-order reaction kinetics described the loss of each neutral sugar from ryegrass cell walls.
- Observation Xylose was the least digestible of the neutral sugars removed from ryegrass cell walls.
- Observation The fungus removed neutral sugars simultaneously and nonpreferentially from plant cell walls.
